Hell yeah. When I opened this thread, I knew something wasn't right...got it figured out pretty quickly.

To all the teens out there (including myself): if you're 17 and you want a car, buy a POS like every other high schooler. kthxbye.

i couldn't agree more. with the money you save you can buy a great 20+ bay computer case and put about 30 fans in it pushing seveal hundred CFMs. cut several holes on the side and tape saran wrap to the inside for the window. make sure to get several neon lights as well to show off your machine-rounded cables and fancy memory heat sinks. if that doesn't make the unix chic hot for you i don't know what will

Yeah.. If you're Magnum PI's son or something. Heh.. Seriously, you'll never be able to afford the insurance if you could even get it for this car at your age.
